2022John Ernest Steinbeck (27 febbraio 1902-20 dicembre 1968) è stato uno scrittore statunitense. Ha studiato per un certo periodo alla Stanford University, ma nel 1925 ha abbandonato gli studi per trasferirsi a New York. Dopo aver brevemente lavorato al «New York American», torna a Salinas. Il suo primo libro, "La Santa Rossa", un romanzo storico scritto nel 1929, non ha successo. Il secondo romanzo, invece, "Pian della Tortilla" (1935), gli fa ottenere il primo premio letterario, la medaglia d’oro per il miglior romanzo scritto da un californiano, assegnata dal Commonwealth Club of California. E con questa storia umoristica raggiunge la notorietà. A breve giro pubblica "La battaglia" (1936) e "Uomini e topi" (1937). Segue quello che viene considerato il suo miglior lavoro, "Furore" (1939). Nel 1940, quando il romanzo viene adattato per lo schermo, riceve il premio Pulitzer. Altri romanzi arriveranno, come il grande "La valle dell’Eden" (1952). Nelle sue opere, Steinbeck ritrae spesso personaggi della classe operaia che affrontano la Grande depressione in California, esprimendo sensibilità e compassione verso i più deboli. Molti dei suoi romanzi sono stati adattati per il cinema e lo stesso Steinbeck ha spesso partecipato anche in veste di sceneggiatore (di film e documentari) riuscendo a conoscere a fondo i meccanismi di Hollywood.

1940réf. 46676New York: L.M. Birkhead Friends of Democracy 1940. First Edition. 12mo bifolium 19.5cm.; faint uneven toning to upper panel else Near Fine. Small leaflet reproducing the correspondence between Birkhead Director of the Friends of Democracy and John Steinbeck in regards to the latter's 1939 novel "The Grapes of Wrath." The first letter from Birkhead is originally dated May 2 1940 and opens "I hope that you will not think I am impertinent but our organization has had put up to it the problem of your nationality. You may consider that it is none of our business nor the business of anyone else in the country. However there is a very widespread propaganda particularly among the extreme reactionary religionists of the country that you are Jewish and that 'Grapes of Wrath' is Jewish propaganda." Steinbeck's response is dated Los Gatos California May 7 1940 and begins "I am answering your letter with a good deal of sadness." Steinbeck goes on to describe in detail his heritage noting that his paternal grandfather was a German farmer many of whose relations still reside "on a fairly large farm near Dusseldorf." On his mother's side "my blood is all north Irish my grandfather whose name was Hamilton having come from Mulkeraugh near Londonderry." Steinbeck concludes "I can prove these things of course--but when I shall have to--the American democracy will have disappeared." In a postscript Steinbeck remarks "On both sides and for many generations we are blond and blue eyed to a degree to arouse the admiration and perhaps envy of the dark complexioned Hitler." The correspondence was reprinted later that year under the title "A Letter in Reply to a Request for a Statement" in a limited edition of 350 copies by the Overbrook Press in Stamford Connecticut.
